HSL 2301DISCUSSION BOARD QUESTION UNIT VI
Do you believe that social, economic, and political factors influence the environment contributing to transnational terrorist activities and threats? If so, how?
My classmate wrote this and I have to comment on it:
I do believe that the socioeconomic and political factors influence the environment contributing to transnational terrorism. For instance, with reference to Al-Qaeda and Islamic State, goals are also transnational. These groups utilize a global religious language to create an understanding of global politics that divides the world in two. On one side is the world of Islam. This is a place of goodness, where religious laws are upheld and Muslims are not oppressed. On the other side is the world of war where Muslims are oppressed by unjust and tyrannical leaders. They argue that, because of the global connection Muslims have with each other as a community of believers, all Muslims should join them in their fight against the “Oppressors’, regardless of where they live (Baylis & Owens, 2017). They also argue that because of the “Oppressors’ are everywhere and attack Muslims everywhere, their cause and fight are global. They refer to the “near enemy’ (local governments) and the “far enemy’ (governments of global powers) as possible aggressors against whom a member of their organization might fight. This enables them to tap into local political grievances and give them a global religious veneer.

Transnational Terrorism
For this assignment, write an essay 500 words in length that discusses the affiliations between domestic terrorists and transnational terrorists. A point to consider is how the threats have migrated outside of Al-Qaeda and the nations of Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, and Somalia.
Traditionally, transnational terrorism groups are classified as heterogeneous groups, foreign fighters, and suicide bombers. Pick at least one terrorist group that fits the classification of transnational terrorism. Conduct research to provide an overview on the affiliations between your chosen group and domestic terrorist groups. How do these affiliations between your chosen terrorist groups relate to the various types of terrorist cells, the chain network, and terrorist organization models? You must use at least two sources in addition to the textbook.
Please be sure to use headings and subheadings, as needed, to organize your paper and viewpoints. Follow APA style guidelines. The title and reference page do not count towards the minimum word length requirements. An abstract is not required.
